The attempt to blacken the character
of DR.. McGlynn by circulating the re-
port that he has defrauded servant girls
out of $4,000 or $4,000 is a cowardly
and a most despicable proceeding. No
unprejudiced person, with no better
authority than a knowledge of DR.. Nc
Glynn's blameless life, will hesitate to
pronounce the story a villainous lie
DR.. McGlynns whole life has been spent
on behalf of the poor and it isn't likely
that man of such hypocrisy as the act
charged would indicate, could be so be-
loved by his parishioners as he was. The
papers which are giving currency to this
monstrous fabrication are either thought
less or malicious. A charge of that kind
should not be made without the most con-
vincing proof. The story may be set
down as a lie, a malicious and an in
defensible lie.

Mrs. KUNKEL, the woman whose hus-
band was shot by the militia during the
riots at Bay View, while feeding his
chickens in his own yard, asks the legis-
lature for an appropriation of $4,000 as
some compensation for the loss of her
husband. Her petition is indeed a touch
ing one, and should be read by every one
who believes that any riotous demon
stration justities harsh measures. It is
an easy matter to wiring the hearts of the
poor, and this widow left without means
and with helpless family to support has
no redress for her wrongs. Her appeal
should touch the heart of every member
of the Legislature and riots, politics and
everything should be forgotten, except
That this poor woman and her children
are in need, and through an act of the
state authorities which was thought was
necessary.

THERE are only few who know much
about the difficulties between Canada and
the United States which caused such an
outburst in the senate recently. Ever
since the close of the revolutionary war
there have been differences about the
fisheries. The treaty of 17S5 granted the
right to take and cure fish on the coasts
of all British possessions. I.ns was ter
minated by the war of 1912, ard in 1918
treaty was entered into whereby the
United States renowned all rights to
fishing within three marine miles of any
of the "coasts, bays, creeks or harbors.'
The fishing vessels were permitted to en-
ter the bays and harbors only ''for pro-
lection, to repair damages or TO get
water" The treaty did not work to the
satisfaction of all parties and a new one
was entered into in 1854, which Quoted
difficulties, but this was terminated by
the United States in 1865. In every case
of the termination of a treaty the Cana
dian government insisted that the treaty
| of 1918 came into force as it was never
terminated though often superseded. At
| such times there were always threats of
| war, and this WIS particularly true be
tween the years 1865 and 1877, when there
was no treaty except it be that of 1918.
| During these years Canada seized United
| States fishing vessels, just as it has been
| doing of late, for violation of the treaty.
A commission was called to settle diff
culties, which decided in 1877 that the e.
S. should pay Canada S5,500,0O0 in gold
for violation of treaty provisions. The
| treaty of 1877 allowed the q. S. the right
Of inshore fishing and for this privilege
| Canadian fish and fish oil were to be ad-
mitted into the United States free of
duty. But the fishermen demanded pro-
| lection and the treaty was terminated In
| 1885. The Canadian government took
for granted this abolished the right of {.
S. fishing vessels entering Canadian har-
bors for any purpose other than those
specified in the treaty of 1918. The e. S.
holds-that that stipulation had no refer
ence to ocean fisheries and that the pro-
hibition is only against the inshore fish
ing vessels, and also that the three ma
rine miles are from the shores of large
bays and not from the points.

LIE legislature had the farmers on the

THE legislature had the farmers on the
hip when at the convention of the latter
in Madison they passed resolutions COM
mandatory of the step TO prohibit legls-
lators and judges from accepting railroad
passes. 1t seems that most of the farm
ers who came to the convention were
furnished with passes. A joint resolution
was introduced in the assembly prohibit
ing farmers from accepting passes. OF
course the thing is joke but at the same
time it is severely just on the farmers.
They denounce the pass business and are
quite severe in their structures upon the
legislature for allowing members to ac-
cept passes and still members declare
that they are worried by applications
from farmers for passes.
1t is difficult to understand how the
farmer has acquired reputation for pre-
eminence IN honesty in comparison with
people of other professions. The farmer
has accepted the fiction in good faith and
sincerely believes he is the salt of the
earth. That farmer does not live who
would refuse railroad pass and yet he
expects others to display that virtue as a
duty. There is no person who is regarded
with more suspicion than the local
editor. Always poor, 1t is a sort OF ira
dictionary feeling that he exists largely Oh
charity. No one thinks of ascrblng to
him any very high principles or the vir-
tue Of self-denial And still the senti-
ment is among the editors that the pass
business be abolished, though to do sc
would be to deprive themselves of an i'm
portant easement. But they are willing
to deny themselves privilege they have
enjoyed, for the public good.
Now change the conditions: Suppose
that annual passes were issued to farmers
legislators and judges and not to editors
would the farmer argue that passes
should not be issued? By no means
Any steps taken toward discontinuanct
of the system would at once be assaileC
| as an abridgment of the rights of farmers
There is no more inconsistent class o.
people living than farmers. In theor.
| opposed to monopolies they never fail t.
stand by the monopOlies when help il
| needed. Look at the number of farmers
in the state legislature and then see the
| unanimity with which Sawyer was MONTH
| ated. Sawyer makes no pretense of beins
| anything but corporation man. AnC
| these very farmers will howl about rail
| road domination while complacently put
ting in power the very element agains
which they so vigorously inveigh. The.
bewail the corruption in politics bu
many of them manage to bleed candidates
at election times. They protest agains
| high taxes and they continue to vote anC
work for men who, having the power
which the people give, impose the higl
| taxes
Farmers have been flattered too mucl
| by those seeking their votes or soliciting
their business until they have become
blind TO their faults and fancy themselve
| the sole custodians of the civic virtues
The fact is that in honesty, Anseltisl
public spirit and political virtue, farmer
occupy low plane. 1t is time they were
made awareof this so that an effort be
made for advancement.

WHEN Bismarck was expelling the
Jesuits from Germany one would hardly
think he could soon after win the Pope

despot and has his heel on the necks of
the German people. Lately, there was
every indication that a peaceful revolu-
ton would be effected in Germany and
that the people at the polls would show
Bismarck that they were more powerful
| than he. But he has induced the Pope
to aid him in carrying the septenate
questlon,-a matter of appropriations for

discovered that this question embraces
religious and moral considerations" which
Justify him in asking that the bill be
